Compromise lyrics

Artist  : Indigo girls 
Song : Compromise
 

you wear
the cloth
of finest lands
the touch of women the toil of hands 

undress
me now
before i bend
from the weight of everyman 

when i`m walking through this world
i need to hold your hand
let me take you on this ride
i hope you understand
i`m not asking for a compromise 

now you
defend
exhume
begin again
it`s the riddle of a skeleton 

we`re all
diseased
so count the coup
i can`t image stopping you 

when i`m walking through this world
i need to hold your hand
let me take you on this ride
i hope you understand
i`m not asking for a compromise 

so the earth
we scorch
we breath
find some comfort on our knees 

you find
your worth
in words that wind
pleasures i don`t comprehend 

when i`m walking trough this world
i need to hold your hand
let me take you on this ride
i hope you understand
i`m not asking for a compromise
asking for a compro
asking for a compromise
